We are accepting new clients! We are relationship specialists! Patterns in relationships can keep partners unheard, frustrated, exhausted, and alone. It might be frequent fights, or conflict that escalates, or a desire for a deeper connection. I help couples with presentations ranging from moving past affairs and high conflict to premarital checkups. Together we can get to a clearer level of understanding and break out of your pattern. In nourishing a relationship, we build a safe haven of comfort and joy which gives the strength to face life challenges. This powerful force, called love, is the most important thing in this life. With my help, we will guide you in having conversations that will move you and your partner toward a more secure relationship with greater joy. Reach out and let's work together!

Contemplative Psychotherapy is a mindfulness/awareness approach focusing the therapeutic relationship on the here and now, which might include past discoveries and future inclinations. This method includes various techniques or no technique at all. Depending on what is suitable for the client. I value being present, compassionate, and genuine. I have daily practices that serve to develop a larger capacity to hold and be present with the pain and suffering a client might be experiencing in an accepting manner without bias, or personal reactivity. From this, the client learns to hold and accept their own suffering without rejecting parts of themselves; and thus feels more whole and empowered, seeing that all situations are workable.

If you're feeling stuck, anxious, struggling in relationships, dealing with grief/loss, or have found therapy unsuccessful in the past, contact me. I've seen my clients transform, even when things seem hopeless to them. My approach is interactive and includes feedback, reflection, challenge, and humor. I specialize in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and have experience working with a wide range of presenting problems.

I have been continuously delighted and amazed at how well EMDR and Brainspotting work to achieve these ends. My clients have thanked me over and over for changing their lives (see testimonials on my website, www.kristinkeating.net) but I give great thanks to the genius of the protocols of EMDR.
